Research on recognizing Bengali script has been started since mid 1980’s. A variety of different techniques have been applied and the performance is examined. In this paper we present a high performance domain specific OCR ...

This paper presents a directional advantage of n-gram modeling in terms of backward or forward n-gram modeling in Bangla. The most commonly used n-gram analysis is predominantly a forward n-gram. However in Bangla it appears ...

In this paper, we talk about developing a search engine and information retrieval system for Bangla. Current work done in this area assumes the use of a particular type of encoding or the availability of particular facilities ...

This paper addresses the issues of Integrating Bangla Computing support for OpenOffice.org office suite and in the process, Identifies and describes the
different problems associated with OpenOffice.org and that should ...

Tesseract is considered one of the most accurate free software OCR engines currently available. It was originally developed by Hewlett-Packard from 1985 until 1995, and is currently maintained by Google. At present, Tesseract ...

Research on automatic speech recognition has been approach progressively since 1930 and the major advances are since 1980 with
the introduction of the statistical modeling of speech with the key technology Hidden Markov ...

Morphological analysis is of fundamental interest in computational linguistics and language processing. While there are established morphological analyzers for mostly Western and a few other languages using localized ...

Stemming is an operation that splits a word into the constituent root part and affix without doing complete morphological analysis. It is used to improve the performance of spelling checkers and information retrieval ...

In this paper, a proposal has been given to make an equitable access of education and technology among the people of the underdeveloped and developing countries of the world. Here a concept called localization has been ...

This paper presents a method to use Kohonen
neural network based classifier in Bangla Optical Character Recognition (OCR) system, providing much higher performance than the traditional neural network based ones. It describes ...

The addition of inflectional suffixes in Bangla com-pound words is fairly complex. A compound is a word that is formed by two or more different words acting as a single entity. One of the key distinguishing
features of ...

This paper describes Morphological parsing of Bangla words using PC-KIMMO, based on Kimmo Koskeniemil's model of two-level Morphology. There are three sections in the PC-KIMMO: rules section lexicon section and grammar ...

This paper describes a statistical grammar
checker, which considers the n-gram based analysis of words and POS tags to decide whether the sentence is grammatically correct or not. We employed this technique for both Bangla ...

In this paper we have described an OCR program made for Bangla documents. This program uses HMM for the recognition process. The description of full OCR program is too large to present here. So, we
have given emphasis on ...

This paper addresses the issue of automated Bangla corpus creation, which will significantly help the processes of lexicon development, morphological analysis, automatic parts of speech detection and automatic grammar ...

This report discusses the theory and
implementation of an Optical Character Recognition (OCR) for Bangla. The principal idea is to convert images of text documents such as those obtained from scanning a document into ...

We describe the initial design of Bangla WordNet (BWN), based on the English WordNet 2.2 distribution from Princeton University. Our goal is to develop a 5,000 entry Bangla WordNet over the next two years. At present, we ...

We report on the compilation of a comprehensive Bangla word list lexicon. The current list contains 80,969 words from the Standard Chalita Bhasha (SCB) vocabulary. The word list is currently being
used by the BRAC University ...
